Leading health education directory adds a thorough career resource center on becoming a pharmacy technician.SEATTLE, Washington – March 20, 2007 – In response to the expanding roles of pharmacy technicians, All Allied Health Schools has launched a new comprehensive pharmacy technician career guide to help prospective students explore their education and career options. The career resource center can be found at http://www.AllAlliedHealthSchools.com/faqs/pharmacy_technician.php.
According to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics, "cost-conscious insurers, pharmacies and health systems will continue to expand the role of pharmacy technicians…(a)s a result, pharmacy technicians will assume responsibility for some of the more routine tasks previously performed by pharmacists."
The career guide details current pharmacy technician salary and certification information, as well as important distinctions between working in hospital, retail and online environments. The in-depth interview with an experienced pharmacy technician provides valuable insight for students considering a pharmacy technician career.
The career guide also has dedicated section to becoming a pharmacy technician in Canada. Although there are many differences between Canadian and U.S. medical insurance practices, the educational requirements for pharmacy technicians in both countries are the same. There is also a good deal of cross-border demand for pharmaceuticals.
